My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Yoda’s the name and curiosity’s the game! I’m a 1.5 year old 60 pound male Lab mix. When the ladies from Paws in Prison picked me up from the scary shelter they gave me a ride to the dog dorm and I did great in the kennel during the car ride. I’m curious about my surroundings and with the help of my new forever family I will build up my confidence to explore the world. I’m very curious to see what our new home has to offer. I am learning all of my basic obedience skills, I’m getting crate trained, potty trained and learning how to walk on a leash as well as getting up to speed on all of my veterinary exams. Won’t you please help me learn about the world? I’d love to have adventures and make my new family proud.

More about this rescue

We are a prison located in Lockhart TX. We rescue dogs from rural area shelters and take them into the prison for training on basic obedience. They are also house trained and crate trained. Training is done by the women inmate handlers. A professional trainer comes to the prison weekly to teach the inmates how to train the dogs. Dogs live at the prison for 2-3 months, in the cells with the inmates, while they are being trained.

All dogs are up to date on their shots, heartworm negative and on preventative, spayed/neutered, microchipped and trained for basic obedience.
